Animal products which are used as food are eggs, chicken, mutton, fish, honey, milk etc. 

Milk is used for drinking purpose, converted into other useful products such as curd, butter, ghee, cheese. Fish gives us cod liver oil which is rich in vitamin A.

Honey is produced by honey bees. Bees collect nectar (sugary liquid) from the flowers and convert it into honey. The  bees store this honey in the structure called hive.
